Interested in knowing in which games I'm working at the moment? Send me a geekmail to discover!

I can see that the price for pre-orders includes worldwide shipping.I'll be in Essen Spiel 2012 so I can collect it in person, saving that cost. Is there any benefit in me collecting it in Essen at your booth or I should just order it and get it delivered earlier to my home address in the UK (same price)?

Will there be a difference in price between pre-order now and buy at Essen?

A pre-ordering option for 2011 will be available from September 1st 2012.

I think what's worse is that if I had pledged for just Briefcase with no promos it would have cost me $45, which is just over 34 Euro, so those pledging at that level are still paying 6 Euro more - it doesn't appear worthwhile to have supported via Indiegogo.

Through Indiegogo you paid 41.7€ while pre-ordering the game from our store would cost you 37.5€. That means you paid 4.3€ more. Not 13€

Having a limited print run for those 24 (not 20 promos) and 3 dice is pretty expensive actually. In addition we had to include Indiegogo fees in the Indiegogo perks.

Perhaps you don't know what you are charging on your website for a pre-order, so let me enlighten you:

Quote:

Briefcase (preorder) - Worldwide shipping

CODE: RTPA 112

This product cannot be added to thecart because you are not logged in.Please sign in to buyAdd to wish list€27.99In stock

This says you are charging 28 Euro (including shipping) for a pre-order and not, as you claim, 37.5 Euro.

I believe you were confused by the "worldwide shipping". I apologize for that. That means that you can choose this product to receive it worldwide. It does not mean that shipping cost is include. If you process your order, you will be required to select a shipping solution before payment.

The reason for the worldwide shipping mention is because we also add offers for Spiel 2012 or other convention pickup. For example in September 1st (as I mentioned above) we will also offer a Briefcase - Pick up from Spiel 2012 option.

I understand your confusion and apologize for it. Still you only paid 4.3€ and I will make sure no more people get confused by the mention of worldwide shipping on our store.

What a shame that the price is almost 13 Euro cheaper to pre-order from the site than what Indiegogo supporters paid. Almost enough to turn me off supporting Artipia in future.

Although I know that we have 20 extra exclusive cards (6 sets) and three regular d6, but still 13 Euro is a lot extra for 20 cards and 3 dice.

Edit: I paid around 41 Euro via Indiegogo

I agree. Those are some very expensive promos.

Fortunately for me I am attending Essen, so opted for that solution, but it does not sit well with me. Hopefully someone from Artipia will explain.

So if I want to get all the promos and pick the game up in Essen is is to late?

A pitty somehow I missed the foundingcampane

There will be another chance to claim all the indiegogo promo material.

By the end of May, we will be launching our Among the Stars indiegogo campaign. We received several requests about the promo material because our Indiegogo campaign was only 30 days long and many people didn't get the chance you get the game.

In the Among the Stars campaign there will be an option to pre-order only Briefcase for those people who didn't get the chance to get it before.
